Nord Dagger

A flash of gold is the last thing your foes will ever see.

Nord Dagger is a one-handed knife with no bench recipe of its own: Cast: Nord Dagger is poured at a level 4 Black Forge from 20 Bloodgold, 10 Timberwood and one Mould: Nord Dagger, then hardened into the finished weapon at a Frost Foundry, which burns Liquid Frost for 50 seconds to do it. It deals 75 slash and 75 pierce, an even split that no single resistance covers, and trains Knives. The primary is a three-hit chain at 14 stamina a swing, the secondary stabs for triple damage at 42, and a backstab on an unaware target multiplies by 6. It reaches quality 4 at 5 of each damage type per level, 90 and 90 on 400 durability, for a further 70 bloodgold and 35 timberwood.

How it's made

No bench makes this outright. The station recipe below only upgrades it; the piece itself is cast from a mould and hardened at a Frost Foundry.

2. Pour the cast at a level 4 Black Forge
3. Harden it at the Frost Foundry

50 seconds burning Liquid Frost turns the cast into the finished Nord Dagger. Upgrades then happen at the Black Forge, level 5 and up.

Upgrade recipe
Station Black ForgeLevel 4

Listed at the Black Forge for upgrades only; the base amounts are what the cast above already cost. Per-level costs are in the table below.

Past quality 4, the Forge of Potential will take it one level further for 1 Bloodgold Battle Idol plus 45 Bloodgold and 22 Timberwood. No other station asks for the idol.

Each quality level adds 10 damage and 50 durability. Quality 2 costs the per-level amount, quality 3 twice that and quality 4 four times, so the last level is more than half of the total.
